Selena pursed her lips and said, “I’ve never seen anything like this abroad, and I didn’t know what kind of exhibition this was since it wasn’t written on the ticket...”Eric reached out and interrupted her with a stern and calm tone, “I don’t care what your motive is, but I advise you to stop having any ideas about me. Your thank-you gift really made an impression, but I appreciate your thought. Not everyone will like this special hobby of yours.”Selena’s face flushed red because of what he said.Did he misunderstand that she was interested in him because she brought him here?Right, normal people would think so.However, whatever she said now was useless.Although Eric did not like the exhibition, he was a decent person and did not leave immediately.When they left, the person in charge of the exhibition came over to send them off.Selena really had nothing to say.She could not explain it, nor could she betray Mitchell.Eric’s driver was waiting at the entrance, so Eric g
Levi and Chance talked and laughed freely.A small dimple appeared on Chance’s face. His eyes were shining, clear, and pure.Eric did not know what they were discussing, but they seemed like they got along well.After a while, Chatty and Fischer also ran over.Levi naturally held Chatty’s school bag and handed her candy from the bag before Chatty stood beside them obediently and listened to their conversation in confusion.Eric was a little startled when he saw this scene from the car.For a while, he did not hear what the person on the phone said.The children were so cute and hopeful.However, when Eric saw them talking and laughing together, he felt a void in his heart.That void could no longer heal, and his life suddenly dimmed.Eric knew he was delusional.After Clayton’s return, Eric restrained himself from thinking about Nicole. If he reduced contact with her bit by bit, she could fade out of his life.At this moment, he felt a sense of despair that he could not gra
After Nicole finished speaking, she shrugged and strode toward her car.Eric stood there with a pale face. His eyes were dark and deep like a cold and bottomless lake.He felt like his heart was being crushed, and the dense pain was overwhelming.It was as if all the strength had been taken from him.Eric really lost Nicole.Nicole got into the car and looked at the back seat as if nothing was wrong.She smiled at Fischer, who was taking out a lollipop and stuffing it into Chatty’s mouth.“Fischer, stop giving her candy. She’ll get cavities!”Fischer quickly said, “This candy is to prevent cavities…”Nicole glanced at him, and Fischer quickly changed his tune, “But it’s not good to eat too much…”As he spoke, Fischer took out the candy that he had just stuffed into Chatty’s mouth.Chatty looked at him in confusion as she thought, ‘But I haven’t tasted it yet!’Nicole nodded in satisfaction.Then, she turned to look at Levi.“Leaf, we’re staying at my house today. Grandpa
Mitchell’s eyes were sore.In this world, perhaps the only person who would miss Angie was Chance.Mitchell quickly squatted down and coaxed Chance patiently and gently.“That won’t happen. You will always be the young master of the Ferguson family. No matter who your father’s new wife is, it won’t change your identity. Chance, don’t be afraid. Although your father seems very strict with you, he won’t choose a woman who treats you badly. He’ll weigh many aspects before he marries someone.”Mitchell did not know if Chance could understand what he said, but he did his best to explain clearly.None of the women on the list were hot-tempered or mean.Otherwise, Mitchell would not have selected them.However, he still thought that Chance, who had red eyes from crying, was really pitiful.If Eric had cared for him more usually, this child would not have been so insecure.Chance cried while hugging Mitchell.Suddenly, Eric pushed the door open and came in. Seeing the two together, E
Selena took a deep breath and quickly stood up.“Wait here. I’ll get you some water.”Selena ran to the next room and found an unopened bottle of mineral water.It was a common brand. Selena guessed that the staff did not have time to keep the box of mineral water in the storage room yet.Selena did not even look at the expiration date, opened it, and poured it into the glass of hot water.Then, she looked at the instructions on the medicine box and found that it was a painkiller of a foreign brand.Selena broke off half a tablet and put it in Chance’s mouth.Chance’s long eyelashes trembled slightly. Before he had time to say anything, he lowered his head and ate it.He swallowed the pill and held his breath for a while. His little face was flushed.After a while, the pain slowly subsided.It seemed that the drug had taken effect.Selena patted him on the back to soothe him.She could not find a tissue in the room, so she wiped Chance’s sweat with her dress.Chance paused
The woman was ridiculed and felt insulted.Her face turned red, and her voice suddenly became sharp.“How dare you say that about me? Do you know who I am? My dad is...”“Ms. Nelson...”Mitchell heard the noise and immediately ran over.He was afraid that a fight would break out if he got there any later.“Ms. Jennings, is there some misunderstanding? It’s best not to argue here.”“Mr. Crawford, this shameless person...”Jayla Jennings pointed at Selena in accusation.Mitchell stepped forward and interrupted her.“Ms. Jennings, Mr. Jennings just mentioned that he wanted you to meet Mr. Ferguson. You should go ahead.”Jayla’s face lit up. “Really?”She smiled and looked at Selena smugly.“I’ll let you off this time. Next time, you’d better watch out and avoid seeing me. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being rude!”“Are you a pile of sh*t that I have to avoid when I see you?”Selena muttered softly.Jayla’s complexion changed. She was hot-tempered and irritated because no o
Chance was Eric’s only son.If something happened to him, Mitchell could not afford the consequences.Mitchell fell silent.After a while, the bodyguards brought the perpetrator over.Someone knocked on the door.Standing at the door was a young and average-looking girl. She was a plain jane that no one would notice if put in a crowd.The person in charge paused and said, “Her name is Hannah Simpson.”Hannah looked a little flustered.“Boss, what can I do for you?”She did not seem to know what was going on.Mitchell glanced at the person in charge. The man had a glum face and scolded the girl.“You were the only one who entered Young Master Chance’s room the whole night. What did you feed him?”Hannah paused. “I didn’t. He said he was hungry, so I brought him some food from the back kitchen. After he finished eating, I took it away. What’s wrong?”The person in charge took a deep breath.“The back kitchen?! Didn’t you know his identity? How could you give him a staff mea
Eric could not help but overthink the situation.Did Selena have ulterior motives?When Selena saw Eric standing there looking tall and upright, her face froze slightly. His condescending and aloof attitude made her feel uncomfortable.However, at this time, she could not care less.Selena stood up, looked at him, and said bluntly, “Mr. Ferguson, I came with the doctor’s car earlier. I discovered that something was wrong with Chance, but when I went to inform you, you deliberately ignored me. What were you thinking at that time? Did you think that I was interrupting your blind date? Or was I interrupting you from discussing business with those people? We don’t know each other that well yet, and I was just grateful to you. I don’t think I gave you any hints about wanting to advance our relationship, so you don’t have to guard against me like I’m a thief, right? Yes, I’m not at your social level, and I’m not worthy of speaking to you, but you don’t need to avoid me like the plague, r
